Hi Lamie! What you're describing doesn't pose a risk of pregnancy. Sperm cells are delicate and they don't do well being passed from surface to surface, like from someone's finger into your vagina. It also sounds like you're not even sure if there was any sperm involved!

I see that you've made posts here in the past worried about pregnancy risk in similar situations. Sometimes when people are constantly anxious about pregnancy, it means that there's something else going on. Could you read this piece for me: You're Not Pregnant. Why Do You Think You Are? Do any of the suggestions sound like something you might be feeling right now?
